Big Beard's name was Han Sheng. The Dao he cultivated was invisible. It was a kind of ability to sneak into the night with the wind and silently moisten things.
There were three thousand Great Daos, and each essence could reach the end of evolution when cultivated to the extreme.
As people from the same era as Yun Shengqian and Kongjin, their long lifespan was far beyond Luo Kai's understanding of all things in nature.
Big Beard had almost traveled the entire world. The human countries of the Western Continent, the Polar Wastelands in the north, the Extreme Crimson Land in the south of the ocean, and even another continent far away in the ocean.
Luo Kai listened to him talk about all sorts of things, his spittle flying everywhere, and felt that his horizons had been broadened.
"The situation of the other continents is different from that of the Eastern Continent. It's not that humans can't coexist with Ominous Beasts, it's just that the vassal relationship has been completely reversed. Humans have become the vassals of some natural gods in order to seek protection. Only the Eastern Continent still fights with Ominous Beasts all year round. Although they are always at a disadvantage, there are still records of them slaying gods."
"Slaying gods?"
Big Beard stood up and pointed at the miasma that covered the surroundings. He said, "There are strong and weak gods too. For example, those ancient evil gods have become existences that coexist with heaven and earth. They are immortal and indestructible. But the gods that were born after the catastrophe are different. They can be killed. This canyon is the place where a natural god fell."
Luo Kai pondered for a while and asked the biggest question in his heart, "Have there been any gods born among humans?"
Big Beard shook his head at first. After a while, he suddenly nodded and said, "I've never seen one, but it's said that the person who wrote the Hexagram Book was a human god."
"Hexagram Book?"
"Yes, it's a book that introduces the energy of all things. The whole book has been lost for a long time. The ones that have been passed down in the future are just copies of some of the contents."
Luo Kai pondered. It seemed that the book he saw at Lady Hua's place was the Hexagram Book. This book introduced the general structure of the world. Humans only saw the front side of the world, and there was a back side that they couldn't see or touch.
Big Beard took a big gulp of wine and asked, "Xiao Kai, you came here to go to the Shattered Spirit Realm, right?"
"Yes." Luo Kai nodded lightly.
"Sigh, it's better not to go. Listen to your brother. Find a place where no one is around and live well."
Luo Kai also took a big gulp of wine. If it was before, he might have listened to Big Beard's advice, but things were different now. He vaguely felt that the answer to the mystery of his past life lay in the Realm of Shattered Spirit. How could he be satisfied if he didn't explore it?
Big Beard also knew that he could not persuade him. If fate wanted to control everything, it had to start with the human heart. If this kid had listened to his advice, he would not have reached his current realm.
It was just that this path was bound to be bumpy and difficult. The slightest carelessness would lead to death. Even if one could become a god and enter the saint realm, one would still be at the mercy of fate. The only way to break it was to be like what he was doing now, to not be tainted by karma. But ever since he met this brat, he had already been tainted.
After a long while, he sighed and said, "The Realm of Shattered Spirit is the place where the ancient Evil God fell. Not only do a large number of the Evil God's minions remain there, but there are also a lot of strange things left behind by extraterrestrial creatures. Even a saint realm expert would find it difficult to escape unscathed if he went too deep."
Big Beard lived in the Blue Sky Plateau all year round and had personally been to the Realm of Shattered Spirit. It could be said that no one in the world knew it better than him. He tore off a rag and drew a detailed map.
"Strictly speaking, the Realm of Shattered Spirit is a distorted void. There are many space cracks left in it. If you accidentally get sucked in, you will die without a doubt. Moreover, many of the laws of physics there are invalid. For example, there is no gravity, no air, and even the flow of time is abnormal. It is very scary.
The most common thing in the Realm of Shattered Spirit are mecha puppets with extremely high intelligence. These mecha puppets are at least as strong as a human physical master. They will attack any creature that enters the Realm of Shattered Spirit. Fortunately, the weapons they use have no energy, so they can only use their bodies to attack, so they can be dealt with. However, there is another thing that is difficult to deal with. I don't know what species it is exactly. It is estimated that they are evil things left behind by the Evil God. They are good at bewitching people and will quietly infect intruders.
Most of the items in the Realm of Shattered Spirit have been corroded by time, but some of them are still effective. For example, the defense system in the Realm of Shattered Spirit is a kind of strange formation. There are six rings in total, and the deeper you go, the stronger the defense system becomes. Back then, I only entered the third ring. I had a premonition that if I went deeper, I would die, so I didn't dare to go further. "
Luo Kai took the map and memorized it in his mind. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Big Beard, it is said that there is an energy infusion device in the Realm of Shattered Spirit that can allow people to become physical masters in a very short period of time?"
"Yes, I think it is a kind of technological product left behind by extraterrestrial creatures. Its main purpose is to inject energy into the mecha puppets. Humans are not metal or stone. The consequences of forcibly receiving energy infusion are extremely dangerous. It can be said that there is a 90% chance of survival. Back then, the Judicial Department took away a defective device from the Realm of Shattered Spirit. That is how the Light Cast Warriors were created."
Before they knew it, they had chatted for a long time. The underground canyon only had one or two hours of sunlight every day. After the sun went out, the place fell into darkness. Every family returned from their fields and looked at Luo Kai strangely when they passed by the small courtyard.
It had been a long time since outsiders came to the small village. Not only did the Space Mistake Miasma prevent outsiders from entering, but the people inside also couldn't leave. The older generation was deeply aware of the dangers of life outside, so they were naturally unwilling to go out. However, the younger generation was extremely curious.
A few young men climbed over the fence and shouted into the courtyard, "Newcomer, how did you get in?"
Luo Kai looked back at them and pointed at the sky. "I jumped down."
The young men immediately curled their lips, expressing their disbelief.
This canyon was called the Grand Canyon of Wind Spirits. It was several hundred kilometers long and almost cut the plateau in half. The underground energy was very rich, and the plants grew luxuriantly. It wasn't too big of a problem for them to survive. Outside the Space Mistake Miasma was the habitat of the plateau insects. They were a kind of ants that ate plants. They wandered around the place where their ancestors died and were unwilling to leave. Occasionally, they would fly out of the canyon to hunt for food.
"Big Beard, can I ask you for a favor?"
Big Beard had already guessed. He nodded and said, "It's your friends up there, right? I will take good care of them for you."
Luo Kai stood up and bowed to Big Beard. He said sincerely, "Thank you."
This wasn't the first time Big Beard had helped him. Thinking about it, the real reason why he was able to survive in the Dragon Shark Camp was because of Big Beard. Later on, for him, Big Beard even risked exposing his identity to fight with Su Chengbo. The gods could scan people's hearts. Even the slightest bit of information could be discovered.
Big Beard said angrily, "Stinky brat, why are you being so polite to me? Go and get your people down here. Let's have a good fight."
Luo Kai smiled. Then, an invisible airflow rapidly gathered around him. His figure soared into the sky, and disappeared into the gray fog.
Outside the courtyard, the young men were all stunned. Only now did they believe that he had really jumped down.
